Hi! I was gifted this Monstera but not sure what to do as im pretty new to this whole plant thing. I want it to grow more leaves instead of being leggy.. also is it normal for there to be so many aerial roots? What would you do?!

I would suggest cutting the stem to the first leaf - leave a bit of the stem to burry in the soil (watch a video on how to do it properly). fertilise and water & she’ll bloom in no time! ☺️
